< Zaburi 112 >
1 Msifuni Yahwe. Amebarikiwa mtu yule anaye mtii Yahwe, apendezwaye sana na amri zake.
Hallelujah. Happy is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in His commandments.
2 Kizazi chake kitakuwa ni chenye nguvu duniani; kizazi cha mcha Mungu kitabarikiwa.
His seed shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
3 Nyumbani mwake mna utajiri na mali; na haki yake itadumu milele.
Wealth and riches are in his house; and his merit endureth for ever.
4 Nuru huangazia gizani kwa ajili ya mtu mcha Mungu; yeye ni wa fadhili, huruma, na haki.
Unto the upright He shineth as a light in the darkness, gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 Heri atendaye fadhili na kukopesha, afanyaye mambo yake kwa uaminifu.
Well is it with the man that dealeth graciously and lendeth, that ordereth his affairs rightfully.
6 Kwa maana hataondoshwa kamwe; mwenye haki atakumbukwa milele.
For he shall never be moved; the righteous shall be had in everlasting remembrance.
7 Haogopi habari mbaya; ni jasiri, akimtumainia Yahwe.
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is stedfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 Moyo wake ni mtulivu, hana woga, mpaka aonapo ushindi dhidi ya watesi wake.
His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he gaze upon his adversaries.
9 Huwapa masikini kwa ukarimu; haki yake yadumu milele; atainuliwa kwa heshima.
He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the needy; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted in honour.
10 Mtu mwovu ataona haya na kukasirika; atasaga meno yake na kuyeyuka; tamaa ya wasio haki itapotea.
The wicked shall see it, and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away; the desire of the wicked shall perish.
